Payment to get Data re PPI

Hi,

I have written to all my creditors asking if I have ( or had ) PPI. Santander have come back and said yes but to get any further data I will need to pay a £10 fee under the DPA.

Surely I don't need to pay this just to reclaim a mis-sold PPI agreement ?

    If you don't have your copy, yes you do.

    Really ? I don't want a copy of it - I just want to re-claim it.

    Well put your complaint in then with your allegations of what they did wrong. You do not require any documentation from them to complain.

    However, you do need an account number. If you don't have it, you'd best get your cheque ready.
